My financial turning point happened when I graduated from nursing school. I had virtually no money, was living on student loans and had a 15-month-old. Being a single parent was not an easy thing to experience, especially while getting my RN.

I met the man who is now my husband around that time, an Army guy. I didn't anticipate falling in love and getting married, but that was what happened merely a month after graduation.

He lived in California for military school and I was in Washington state. We met a total of four times before getting married. It was great and crazy.

He was extremely good with money, and I got an awesome sign-on bonus when I moved to California and started working. In fact, within six months I was able to pay off all my student loans—and my car!

That was my moment. It is so empowering to know that I can be married and still have a family and career where I make a decent amount of money.

At this time, my husband is still in the Army and I continue to work two 12-hour night shifts per week as an Emergency Room Nurse. I love it, my education and career have truly allowed us to have the kind of life we want.
